The key to happiness

[Derrick Barnicoat]

There are also things, which are particular to any individual which make them happy. More accurately, people have passions and things they love to do which give them a sense of purpose. For instance what about the person who provides the cold, hungry, shoeless person with shoes, warm food and clothes. Happiness can come from contributing to the outside world. I personally meditate everyday and this allows me to have a more clear idea of my purpose in this life. It also allows me to be grateful for what I have and shed the oppressive pressure of a profit driven dominating global culture. Breaking those chains is not really about being barefoot in the woods. It is more about an internal change than an external. Or rather, the internal change brings about external changes (good decision making, good intentions etc.) which bring about a sense of freedom, love, well being and happiness.
